MOGA Update

It's been a few weeks since I attended MOGA so I want to do some catching up and post some photos. This was an incredible geocaching event and
very well organized. My hat is off to all the directors and their team
members. And Richard (Bumanfam) at the awards ceremony was one of the funniest MC's
I have seen. He should go into show business. My thanks to all the
long-time geocachers who I saw again, and to
all the geocachers who I met at this event. By my count I reviewed and
published over 400 new caches in preparation for MOGA. It took a lot of
time over the past few months, but it wasn't as much work for me as it
was for those who went out and actually hid the MOGA caches. Now be sure to
maintain them! :-)

What others are saying about this blog

...it's interesting to know how people who approve caches think. Glad I came across your blog and I'll be watching for more!

I've just begun my foray into Geocaching here in Okinawa, Japan, and I was looking for a blog like this to help me.Your tips include things that I never would have thought of, even after reading the FAQ on geocaching.com Thanks again!

About Me

I've been geocaching since Feb. 2001, and I've been a reviewer since 2003. As a reviewer, I started out using the ID WGA2, but other reviewers have since used that ID for approving caches in Wisconsin so I started a new ID (IowaAdmin) in July 2005. My "regular" IDs are kbraband (for solo geocaching) and active2gether (for caches I find with my wife). While some reviewers believe in hiding their true identities, I don't do that. I believe that by working together with fellow geocachers to get caches approved according to the geocaching.com guidelines in a cordial and consistent manner, there should be no reason to keep my ID secret.
